Помислив да го преведам текстот подоле (нешо додадено од мене) ама може ќе ја изгуби смислата пошто не сум многу талентирана за преведување.
Значи.
Што претставува за вас хаосот? Како гледате на него?
Како безреден простор во кој не се опстојува затоа шо нема никакви правила и ограничувања или како совршена локација за поттикнување на креативноста? Деструктивност или создавање?

Originally the word Chaos derives from the Greek Χαος and typically refers to unpredictability. In the metaphysical sense, it is the opposite of Law and Order: unrestrictive, both creative and destructive.
Mythology: According to Hesiod's Theogonia, Chaos was the nothingness out of which the first objects of existence appeared. These first beings, described as children of Chaos alone, were Gaia (the Earth), Tartarus (the Underworld), Eros (desire), Nyx (the darkness of the night), and Erebus (the darkness of the Underworld). Thus, at the very start of his story, Hesiod establishes the deities related to each element known to man, beginning with the primordial elements: the Earth, the starry Sky, the Sea.Theogonia presents two ways to come to life, either by division (Gaia, Nyx), or by mating. After Gaia, almost all the deities brought to life by division are negative concepts (Death, Distress, Sarcasm, Deception, and so on) and for the most part, they are produced by the goddess Nyx. According to that, Chaos features three main characteristics:
• it is a bottomless gulf where anything falls endlessly: That the Earth will emerge from it to offer a stable ground, radically contrasts with Chaos;
• it is a place without any possible orientation, where anything falls in every direction;
• it is a space that separates, that divides: after the Earth and the Sky parted, Chaos remains between both.
Anyway, Chaos is considered as a "rather a crude and indigested mass, a lifeless lump, unfashioned and unframed, of jarring seeds and justly Chaos named". From that, its meaning evolved into the modern familiar "complete disorder".
An oft-made assumption is that the metaphysical Chaos is Evil and that Law is Good, however it should be noted these are different concepts, and it is quite possible for Chaos to be Good and Law be Evil. One example of this would be the story of Robin Hood, or the real-life world examples of oppressive governments and dictatorships being thrown off by freedom fighters.
